It's not a product, just a project. Check it out if AWS is getting you down! :)
Is there a reason people don’t self-host on a small home server? $85/mo is a lot of money if you aren’t making any money off what you’re hosting. If you mostly run CRUD APIs and sites, is there any downside to a low bandwidth home connection? Multiple family members already stream Plex content from my measly 20mbit upstream. Why not run a whole site or multiples?
$85/month is a lot of money, but given the number of services he runs on his server, each service now costs roughly $3/month, lower than the price of the cheapest DigitalOcean droplet.
Easy setup with: - traefik (nginx proxy with auto letscencrypt) - portainer (docker container management) - fail2ban (basic security) - logwatch (server / security stats by mail) - munin (server stats) - restic (cloud backup) - unattended-upgrades (auto install security updates) - apticron (weekly info) - n8n (automatisation for e.g. quick info via telegram, if something not work) Run every app that you want in your…
A few months ago, I made an offer of $100 in one of the freelancing websites, for someone to set-up something like your configuration on one of my Digital Ocean instances. I asked for a few more apps to be installed (git, svn, etc). There were no takers :-) I think a web site/service which lets you choose "apps" and spawns a VPS instance would be very useful and profitable (Think "ninite for VPS"). I started to work…
Also see Cloudron. Not cheap but I’ve heard that people are very happy with their service. Basically you self host their “app as a service” platform so to speak.
Kind of like a super polished Sandstorm, but totally different sandboxing technologies (believe Cloudron uses Docker but not sure if they still do—- and I believe Sandstorm used Kenton Varda’s cap n proto technology which probably allowed for even greater sandboxing/protection than Docker, I would have to imagine..)..

It basically pulls Compose apps from the git repositories you specify, builds the containers and makes sure they're running. Pretty simple and works really well for me.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Playing devil’s delegate with a normal process how we launch new service in big tech: 1. Have you done a security review and ideally pen-testing from a 3rd party? Are you fully TLS from end to end, are you aware of any exploitable vector from your API/UI and how you mitigate them 2. How do you handle software patching and vulnerabilities? 3. Do you consider your app Operational ready? Can you rollback, do you audit c…
My clients do / pay for whatever the audits are required in their line of business. I do not get involved unless told to do some particular things. >" but I still find it hard to trust everyone who DIY" It depends on what is the actual DIY part is. In any way it is your problem. Not mine. Sorry to say but to me your whole post feels like typical FUD scaremongering client to cloud. >"While you still need to do all thi…

TLDR: You can self-host without your ISP knowing!

This is _very_ close to my exact setup. Though, I never used portainer (just manage a big docker-compose file) is it worth it?
For backups restic is a blessing. And so is Syncthing for getting things to the backup machine quickly (from mobile and non-unix machines).

I went the opposite direction, 1 vm per service. It's much easier to secure, backup, restore thanks to full isolation.
But that bloats your backups like crazy. Much better to use something like Ansible to setup the VMs and then just backup the data.
